  1. I think it was visual storytelling - the armor with the inset gold looked like kintsugi, which is a whole philosophy of damage and repair being an important part of an object's story. I think it's meant  to convey that they've seen some shit vis-a-vis the broken and repaired armor, and that they have formed a close alliance with the Night Mothers through the red wraps on their armor

    Yeah this was also used with Kylo putting his mask back together.
  2. Lars Mikkelsen is perfect as Thrawn. Master class in Rebels and here with live action Ahsoka. The oni gold style faced stormtrooper is an aesthetic I’m fully on board with. Give me more samurai elements in Star Wars!

    I was like Thrawn?!?

    AND a Roman Calvary mask?!?

    AND Ronin bandits?!?

    AND Ezra?!?

    Yes please!

    And some teenage mutant ninja rocks!

  3. I received my Form 1 approval for my amnesty brace today, so time to start looking at stock options. Anybody run one of those short PDW buffer tube/stock systems? This is on a 10.5" 300 BLK (now)SMR. I'm looking for something compact, but reliable enough for shooting deer and pigs. I already have another 300 BLK that is my primary scary hunting gun. Also, it's a crappy Radical Firearms gun with a super low serial number (like under 30) and shoots to the left, so I don't want to spend a ton of money on a super fancy set-up, especially until I can spend the time to figure out what the deal with the shooting off is.
    For anybody wondering about wait times, I submitted my eFile Form 1 on May 31 and then sent in paper fingerprint cards the next week because there wasn't a place nearby I could find to do the electronic ones in time. so three and a half months.  Also, I only sent in one set of fingerprint cards instead of the two I think you are supposed to send in, and it still got approved. I guess they figured they are going to digitize them anyways and rejecting it for that is just more paperwork for them to do later when I resubmit a paper Form 1 and they get to type everything in.

    I mailed my paper form 1s on May 30.

    Still waiting.

    Guard filed on like week 2 of it opening, paper form 1s with a trust. He got his rejection notice 3 weeks ago along with refile instructions, he got his approval notice last week.
  4. Don't worry, I'm sure it will get better as long as you stay in line and don't do a thing

    I didn’t say I blind line vote. Like I said my wife keeps us looking forward. We have tried to do our part to keep the nuts out of school boards and likes, I irritates me to no end that the Paxtons call Collin “home”.

    But Collin co is ridiculous

    I went from John Wiley Price driving my family crazy to somehow a worse human in Paxton

  5. Subtle hints. Light saber is orange, not Sith red.
    The Inquisitor killed by Ahsoka was a ghost of a dead Sith Inquisitor or Jedi created by Morgan Elsbeth since she's a Nightsister. So it's not a true Sith Inquisitor.

    Right, I thought they leaned pretty heavy into letting the SW geekdom know that aha that isn’t an inquisitor but a nightsister zombie spell, we’ve seen them with Daka in the CW and Merrin in Jedi:Fallen Order

    correct, they're not sith, just former jedi turned amoral mercenaries. The interesting thing is that Baylon knew about Anakin being Darth Vader

    Agreed he doesn’t fit the Sith way, he is more a fallen Jedi turned merc that actually sounds like he despises a anakin/Vader…

  6. Finally got to watch it. Wow!

    Filoni is a master.

    Snips live action was pretty amazing, a teenager leading soldiers to their death like canon fodder.

    The 501st and captain Rex…

    The 332nd and Commander sexy Rex, along with the orange marking clones!

    Anakin totally seemed like the meshing again of himself and “the son” in the mortis arc, teaching and tempting Ahsoka “the daughter”.

    Holy damn that was pretty badass.

  7. yes but you see if all Ticket hosts do not say something gushingly positive about our team 100% of the time then they (a) hate us and want us to fail (and/or don't talk about us the proper amount) and (b) are "sucking off" [insert team/player] because...well, as Junior has long noted and has long been correct: college football fans are the most thin-skinned fans out there.

    College football and European soccer are quite similar in all facets.

  8. Yeah I can't imagine Zeb not showing up.
    This is Filoni's show that is a direct sequel series to Rebels. Zeb is absolutely gonna show up at some point.
    I'll tell you who else I'd love to see - Agent Fucking Kallus.  Having him and Zeb show up together at some point to fight Thrawn would be *chef's kiss*

    That’s pretty much what my daughter and I said, Zeb and Kallus needs to come flying in on the phantom II and dock on the Ghost…

    As they prepare to board the Chimera “ghost” ship
  9. So the inclusion of Anakin seems to be divisive in a lot of places.

    My first thought was it’s going to be another reference to Mortis and the Son and Daughter frm their CW story.

    My daughter is annoyed Zeb hasn’t met up with Hera yet.

    We both expect Thrawn to make his appearance this next week!!!

  11. I remember seeing the rendering of what it would look like when they first started and though no fucking way that’ll be the final product.

    When that video hit my madridista email, I thought it was the same video again.

    Holy shit, it was worth 3 years at di Stefano stadium

  12. Sociedad 5 Granada 3 must have been a good one.
    Getafe is up 1-0 on RM at halftime.

    Getafe keeper having the game of his life, he has robbed at least 4 goals in the 2nd half alone.

    Because of him alone it’s 1-1 at the 70’
